【文章內(nèi)容簡介】
ust be from Spain or from other countries in Europe. American culture is a part of Spanish life now. It39。s certain that many things from America are as much a part of people39。s lives as Spanish things. For example, Coca Cola is as familiar to everybody as any typical Spanish product. I39。ve known about Coca Cola for my whole life. However, it39。s different with Western fast food. For example, I don39。t think McDonald39。s is as successful in Spain as it is in other countries. In my opinion, one of the reasons may be the lifestyle of the Spanish people, The Spanish people normally eat at home. On the other hand, maybe McDonald39。s hamburgers will eventually replace the famous Spanish tapas. It39。s true that in every city in Spain you can find a McDonald39。s, and it is more popular among the Spanish children than among the adults. In any case, it39。s obvious that American culture is being more and more a part of our lives every day. (1)From the first paragraph we can know that .

These cities are centers of music and dance, museums, and theaters. Here are four of them where you can find inspiration in the arts, starting with the top spot. Rome, Italy At its peak, the Roman Empire extended over nearly two million square miles of land across Europe, Asia Minor and North Africa. Today, that history is on display everywhere. The city39。s main attractions are famous not because of tourist advertisements, but because they are really so impressive. No wonder it39。s known as the Eternal City: You could spend forever here and find new artistic and cultural treasures every day. Paris, France Hemingway famously called Paris a moveable feast, but wherever you go while in the city, there is always something to see, hear, taste or feel. With some 150 museums, Paris doubles as an art history class, offering the very best of the discipline across centuries and styles. London, United Kingdom London is inspiration and setting for the rise of Shakespeare, Dickens, Orwell and Eliot and the breeding ground for all those iconic (標志性的) bands: The Kinks, The Clash and The Stones. London is also Banksy39。s favorite canvas, home to more than 1,000 galleries, and the kind of place where you can spend a whole day in a single museum and still be ready for more when it opens the next morning. Vienna, Austria As we all know, Western music would be unrecognizable without Austria39。s capital, which nurtured many famous musicians. It39。s also the site of the Vienna Secession, a revolutionary art movement founded in 1897 by Gustav Klimt. Visitors today can see the fruits of all that creativity in the city39。s 100 – odd museums.(1)Why is Rome regarded as the Eternal City? had an important role in history. history can be seen everywhere. can easily find new art and culture. can spend money well there.(2)What does the underlined word nurtured in the last paragraph mean? ....(3)Which column can we probably find the text? ....【答案】 (1)C(2)A(3)B 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,介紹了四個世界上最受喜愛的藝術和文化城市。 (1)考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù) Rome, Italy部分中的“No wonder it39。s known as the Eternal City: You could spend forever here and find new artistic and cultural treasures every day.”可知難怪它被稱為永恒之城:你可以永遠在這里度過,每天都能發(fā)現(xiàn)新的藝術和文化寶藏。由此可知羅馬被視為永恒之城是因為人們可以很容易地找到新的藝術和文化。故選C。 (2)考查詞義猜測。根據(jù)Vienna, Austria部分中的“As we all know, Western music would be unrecognizable without Austria39。s capital”可知,如果沒有奧地利的首都,西方的音樂將是不可識別的,因此推斷畫線句句意:奧地利誕生了許多著名的音樂家。由此可知劃線單詞意思為“產(chǎn)生,誕生”,故選A。 (3)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段中的“In our annual Readers39。 Choice Awards survey, we asked our readers to rate their favorite cities in the world for arts and culture.”可知在一年一度的讀者選擇獎調(diào)查中,我們要求讀者對世界上最喜愛的藝術和文化城市進行排名。以及文章內(nèi)容主要介紹了四個藝術和文化城市,由此可推知文章能夠在“藝術”一欄找到。故選B。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解,詞義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查,是一篇文化類閱讀,考生需要準確捕捉細節(jié)信息,并根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關系,進行分析,推理,從而選出正確答案。6.閱讀理解 Sweetes
